Home Care
Depending on your needs, you may be able to get help with your personal activities (such as laundry, shopping, cooking, and cleaning) at home from family members, friends, or volunteer groups.
If you think you need home care, talk to your family to see if they can help with your care or help arrange for other care providers. There are also some home health care agencies that can help with nursing or attendant care in your home.
Medicare only pays for home care if you meet certain conditions. To get a free copy of the Medicare booklet “Medicare and Home Health Care,” visit the Medicare Publications tool. You can also call 1-800-MEDICARE (1-800-633-4227). TTY users should call 1-877-486-2048.
